A great article. I am a solo founder myself and this article has given me more confidence about doing this alone, at least for a while. I have a couple of employees on board, so work load is not a big problem. I'd still love another founder to join me though, especially someone with complementary skills. I haven't raised money yet, and would like to do a small round, so not sure how much of a challenge this is going to be, as a solo founder.


I agree, I'm also running solo to begin with. It's sometimes pretty demoralizing when you read and hear that you would get nowhere if you're a single founder. I subscribe to the notion of building something first and perhaps gaining traction before bringing complementary skills onboard.
